Okay, I admit that Richard Simmons has a tendency to be rather annoying. But back in the day he was one of the few REAL exercise gurus and I loved him. What he’s trying to accomplish here is excellent, as far as I’m concerned. Hell, I live in a town whose school system has cut back exercise to two half an hour periods a day, then removed “treats” because they don’t want the kids to get fat. *rolls eyes*

ETA: That should read “two half an hour periods a week”, not “day”. Thanks neitherday!
